Another day, another drenching. But sometimes we get rainbows too. This one was spotted at the allotment, though it’s not the one I saw the day before yesterday, because I didn’t have my camera with me. Pretty dramatic though, looking over the town to Walton Hill.
The quotation is from Shakespeare’s King Lear Act 3 scene 2
Six Word Saturday Now please pop over to Debbie’s for a very astonishing vista
Pretty dramatic, I agree.
A reminder that God will not drown humanity and other unlucky animals again in anger😂
Given Much Wenlock’s situation in a bowl between steep hills, we are very grateful for such guarantees, Mak 🙂
Amazing capture of the double rainbow! Some compensation at least for all that rain!
Every cloud…etc, Peter. Rainbows are certainly more dramatic than silver linings 🙂
Ah, but you see, it’s alright for it to rain now, Tish. April showers! And sunshine (hopefully 🙂 ). Blossom just peeping out on the trees in the park this morning. 🙂 Lovely shot!
April showers. Hmph. But yes, you’re right, Jo. They are on time. And yes the blossom is beginning to burst. Church Stretton looked v. other worldly yesterday. (Thought of you). After massive rain, all the hills were covered in pale luminous mists.
Aww! 🙂 🙂 No mists here. Just grey 😦 But maybe, a glimmer on the horizon…
Over the Edge doesn’t look too bright, but in the other direction we too have a glimmer in our grey, and NO PUDDLES. Last night coming home over the Edge there were huge lakes on the road near the quarries. V. dangerous.
The ground is so sodden it has nowhere to go. Take care, Tish! I’m still pyjama’d and dithering 🙂 🙂
And a double one to boot..Beautiful. We had 4 2/10″ after last nights storms.It is spring afterall
This morning, our rain is in the white, flakey form. I’d give anything for the sun required to make a rainbow…
Oh no, Ron. Not more snow!
Super to catch a double rainbow. Ours are usually behind the house and we have few windows facing that way so when we get sun and rain I have to go charging out into the lane with camera in hand!
The allotment is a good spot for catching rainbows 😉
Certainly seems it.
Hang in there it can’t keep on forever!
Am hanging in, Gilly, but so far this morning it’s not looking too hopeful.
Wish ours was rain and not snow and cold!
Am sorry you’ve still got snow, Jackie. It starts wearing one down when it goes on and on.
I think it’s also from a song in Twelfth Night at the end of the play. Or maybe that’s from the movie version when Ben Kingsley goes off singing having played the fool.
Yes that particular scene with Ben Kingsley was also in my head. Better go and check 🙂
Great shot!
Thanks, Sue.
😊
Very dramatic 4 pots of gold!!!
Maybe the source of the free cash in the supermarket. I must find out more 🙂
Definitely find out more….
Wow… double rainbow! Breathtaking capture. 🙂
For some reason they often come in twos in Much Wenlock. Must be the lay of the land.
Oh what a beautiful shot. Worth all the rain.
Thank you, Shimon. It is still raining today though after brief respite yesterday. Am feeling a touch waterlogged.
It’ll pass. Find a good book, and put a bit of whisky in the tea, and read it close to the heater…
Whisky in my tea – now there’s a slippery slope if ever I heard one 🙂
Very impressive double rainbow!
It’s a good ‘un 🙂
